Taylar, you're one cool Assassin

If I could trade places with any fictional character, I would choose Ezio from the video game Assassins Creed 2. This may seem unlikely for me, but I absolutely love that game and I think Ezio is just the bees knees. After playing this game, I think living the life of Ezio would be amazingly exciting. Here are some reasons why.


First, Ezio has this amazing ability where he can climb up the side of any building and run on rooftops without ever loosing balance. You could compare his ability's to Spiderman's minus the webs. This provides a easy get away when being followed by guards. Also, what could possibly be better than running around climbing buildings all day? I agree, nothing.

Next, I will ask you to direct your eyes up. See that right there? That picture my friends, is of Ezio. Another reason why I think being Ezio would be a mind blowing experience would be that he gets to wear that awesome outfit. When you first begin playing as Ezio you are wearing weird pants and a pirate shirt, or at least that's how I would describe it. Next, you look in an old trunk and find the outfit that Ezio is wearing above. CABLAM!!! you look awesome.

I don't only want to live as Ezio because he looks cool and can climb a building. No, no, no my fine friends there is much more to it than that. Ezio, as the title of this game implies is an Assassin. Which can only mean one thing. He can kick some rear end. That picture right there is of Ezio destroying three guards with a pole-type thing.

Again, I will ask you to direct your eyes up to the other picture. See those knives on his arms? Those are my favorite weapons in the history of video game weapons. Not that I would use them in real life, if I were Ezio. I just think they look cool and would scare the bageebers out of some civilians. Again, not that I would ever use them.

Ezio has gone through a lot. His father and brothers were betrayed by a family friend, which led to them being sentenced to death and being hung. He has a lot of anger and he seeks to wreak vengeance on the people who betrayed his father and caused the death of those that he loved. But all this anger only makes him a more entertaining character to play and I'm positive living as him would be a interesting challenge. If I could, I would change places with Ezio in a second and CABLAM!!!!! I would be awesome.

Exercise 3

You're another year older
It's not hard to tell
For the droop in your shoulder
and the way your wrinkles swell
If the weather seems colder
It's your blood pressure that fell
But even though you're older
I still love you as well.

Happy Birthday

Snooping causes chaos

My funniest experience is set in Toronto, where I spent two weeks of last summer with my grandfather. While we were there my grandfather told us that he had someone he wanted us to meet. We piled into his jeep, and drove down busy streets until we came to the biggest house I had ever seen in my entire life. My sister and brother bolted from the car followed by myself while we listened to my mother scowl in disapproval. My grandfather led us around the mansion to a garden area where the smell of barbecue filled the air. An older man approached us and my grandfather introduced him as Louie, one of his best friends. He then introduced us to Louie's wife Vera and their daughter. They were from a place outside of Italy and spoke with Italian accents. They prepared great Italian food for us, then told us stories of my grandfathers younger days. After sitting for a long while, I asked if I could use their restroom. My brother and sister quickly spoke up and said they needed to go too. But in truth, we just wanted to explore the mansion that sat in front of us. After getting the directions to the bathroom we all headed in the house and were instantly amazed by the marble counter tops, and winding stair case. As you could imagine, we ran straight up the stairs. After climbing the summit to the top, we heard a voice from outside call "have you found it?" we answered that we had and found the room labeled bathroom. We opened the door and found the largest room in the house. We all walked in in stunned amazement. The largest bathtub I had ever seen sat in the corner beside 3 sinks and a gold towel holder. Unaware that we were now in separate parts of the room, I turned quickly at the sound of my brothers voice "Guys look at this!" My sister and I quickly went to where he was standing and saw what all the fuss was about. He was standing in front of a Toilet Baday. Which is a devise you sit on and it shoots water up, needless to say, we had never seen such a contraption in our lives. We were confused and a little" weirded out" by the strange invention, so my brother decided to turn its silver tap. Out of no where an ambush of water shot up into my brothers face sending us all fleeing quickly from the scene. When we were a safe distance away, at the bottom of the stairs, all my sister and I could do was laugh at the site of our poor drenched brother. There was nothing left to do but face the poor people whose house we just raided. Upon the site of my brother, they immediately asked what happened and we were forced to tell the truth. They laughed and said "this is not the first time this has happened." So, here is a helpful little tip. Never snoop in another persons house and never trust strange contraptions.

The way I picture Heaven.

When I was a kid, my little cousin died. It affected the way I looked at things and the way I looked at faith. Back then, I wanted to believe that he was in a really fun place where he would be happy and safe. So I guess that idea stuck because the vision I developed of Heaven is still how I see it today. I always pictured that when you enter the gates of Heaven, you are immediately reunited with all the loved ones you have lost. Then, you enter what looks like a big subdivision and all the houses are made of clouds. Everyone who is gone gets a house, so there are people mowing cloud lawns and watering cloud flowers. Everyone is happy and safe and together. It may sound far fetched but, that is my vision of Heaven.

Brother causes sleep deprivation***********

Well, if I said that I was a little less than jazzed about being here today. That would be a lie. I am completely disgusted with the fact that I am at school. On a normal day, I can tolerate coming to school. But today, no sir, today is different. Last night I got exactly three hours of sleep. Why so little you ask. I spent half the night studying and preparing my speech. The other half, I have my brother to blame for. You see, my brothers excessive WoW playing keeps me up at night. The boys bedroom is just a mere wall away from mine. So, when he comes upstairs at 3 o'clock after a long day and half a night of questing and running dungeons; he is of course hungry. He spends approximately 30 minutes making a sandwich and enjoys it while watching a movie in his bedroom, with the volume turned up way too loud. After this, he takes his dishes out to the kitchen and knocks on my door, wanting to talk about newly acquired gear, new mounts and something about wanting to use my account for a new character. My brother is easily one of my best friends, but I must admit. After a long night of the events listed above, I contemplate slipping him sleep pills and getting a much needed good nights sleep.

Clark, My dear boy*************************

If I were stranded on a island and I had one wish; there is no doubt in my mind who I would wish for. Clark Kent. Why? Because he is super man! Why on earth would you waste your time wishing for someone who could at most be your version of Wilson from Cast Away ( for those who don't know. Cast Away is a Tom Hanks movie where he gets stranded on an island and uses a volley ball named Wilson for company) Why ask for company when you could get a way out. I would wish for Clark Kent because he could just hop into his Superman suit and get us off the island. It's just that easy.

Ninja-Ranger-Formers.***************

Argue with me if you must, but in my personal opinion The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Power Rangers and Transformers are all super hero's. So if I were to be any super hero, I would combine all three groups and make myself the ultimate super hero. Picture this in your mind. A robot with a shell and power ranger helmet. Anything better? I think not. I would be a master with Katana, nunchucks, bo staff, and sai( super cool swords). I could turn into a car at any time and have an awesome suit. If I could actually become a Ninja-Ranger-Former my life would be complete.

Hey there Dawson, whats it like in westchester?

My names Dawson. I live in Westchester. It rains here. I live in a yellow house with my mom and my dog boomerang Sam. Wanna know why I called em Boomerang Sam? cause he got hit by 4 cars but keeps comin back. Mom told me I had to go for a walk today. When I went outside Boomerang Sam wouldn't shut his trap so I had to go pet him for a couple minutes. After that I hopped the fence and went to see my neighbour Mr.Jenkins. He's a monster. Wanna know how I know? One night me and my best pal Jim Crandle snuck over to his window and saw him pluck his teeth right from his mouth. I went home and told mommy and she just said he could do that cause he's old. But I had to cut through his yard to get my baseball cap out of his tree. Jim through it up there. He sure is a stinker. Old Jenkins was mowin his lawn so I ran just as fast as I could. Then I seen his fat baby Maggie and thought I'd say hey to her. When he saw me he got hollerin for me to go away from his baby cause once she through her dolly at me and I spit right on her. I just kept right on runnin, climbed that big tree, got my cap and left. I ran along the side of the fence, hopped onto Mr.Jenkins's shed and into Mrs.Molly's yard. Shes a ol bum if I ever seen one. She's all the time hollerin for me to get back home and stay outta her yard. I thought I'd pay her back for when she told mama I was a bad boy so when I passed her, I threw my toad Thomas at her. I keep em in my pocket so mama dont see em. She let out a big ol wail and I took off. I ran right passed her bird bath, her wheel barrel and around the light post till I got to the McMillan farm. That ol gal Mrs.McMillan is a nice ol girl, she gives me toonies to catch tad poles outta her stream. I popped in to say hey then ran to the woods to hide till big bum Mrs.Molly shut her trap. I could hear her ol mouth a gabbin "Mira Pierce! where is Mira Pierce? her boy done just threw a toad on me." After about 2 hours Mrs.Molly shut up and I started on home cause I was gettin hungry. I walked outta the woods and past Jeremy's house. He got a big ol dog named Jumpin Jupiter and he sure is a mean ol thing. He's huge too. He stands taller than me! So I was real sneaky when I passed Jeremy's place so I wouldn't wake ol Jumpin Jupiter. When I got passed Jeremy's car, I let out a hoop cause I thought I got passed that mean ol dog. But first thing I knew after that I felt a big ol tug on my shorts and there was Jumpin Jupiter clamped right onto my shorts. I slapped him in the head so he'd let go and took off like a scared rabbit. He come right on behind me though as fast as he could. I ran across the street, around a tree, back out onto the street, down the side walk and then up onto Mrs.Molly's car. which got her hollerin again but I hadda find a way to ditch ol Jumpin Jupiter. But let me tell ya, they don't call em Jumpin Jupiter for nothin. He was up on the hood of the car in a blink of my eye. So there I went again. Off the car, down and into Mr.Jenkins's shed. I thought for sure I'd lose him there. But he came right on behind me. So I ran into my teepee I made three days ago, thinkin he'd quit, be he never so I had to keep goin. I jumped with all my strength over the garbage can, and Jumpin Jupiter did the same. I jumped over my bright red Radio Flyer wagon and saw ol Jumpin Jupiter bound over that too. After that I ran right into my house and shut the door real quick. Mama was waitin for me of cause cause she heard all the thrashin and goin and thought I was bein killed or somethin. She was just about to roar at me but heard my ol belly growl and saw the tear in my shorts and just gave me a big ol hug. I never got in no trouble after all. I think I'll go for another walk tomorrow.



Spelling is supposed to be bad.

Pretty mean Swines.

Once upon a time, there were three little pigs. There was Curly. He was the oldest.There was Wurly. He was the smartest. And then there was Flo. She was the favorite pig.Their mother loved Flo the best. Curly, Wurly and Flo lived with their mother in a high-riseapartment building in New York City. Their apartment was on the 75th floor.The pigs didn’t mind this because there was an elevator that opened right in front of their apartment door. It was on the days that their elevator wasn’t working, that the pigs suffered.Their little hoofs would be aching by the time they reached their apartment.Their mother would have to have little hoof baths waiting for her three little pigs when they finally reached the top. Of course, Flo always got the warmest hoof bath because she was their mother’s favorite. One day, Mama Pig sent the three pigs to the store to buy apples for their dinner. She gave them a list of items that she needed.She also gave them their allowance, and she told them that they could buy their favorite candy which they would eat for their dessert. The three pigs put on their jackets (it was winter).They put on their gloves and scarves. Next, it was time to put on their boots.Curly slipped on his bright red leather boots over his red and yellow polka dot socks.Wurly, being the most intelligent, slipped on his waterproof, fully lined boots over his white socks.Curly and Wurly were ready and waiting for their sister. She could not find her boots."Curly and Wurly," she said, "have you seen my boots?"Curly and Wurly looked at each other and then they looked at their sister."I’ll tell you where they are," said Wurly, "if you’ll give us your allowance to hold while you go and get them.""Okay," agreed Flo as she handed the boys her allowance."There are your boots, over there," said Curly. "Where?" asked Flo suspiciously."Over there!" squealed the boys as they pointed to the window in there living room."They're over there behind that curtain." Flo slowly walked toward the window.The boys followed closely behind their sister. Just as she reached the window, Curly opened the window and Wurly pushed Flo through. Curly and Wurly squealed with delight as their sister fell 75 floors. Curly and Wurly were thrilled that their plan worked. They were rid of Flo and they had her money! Luckily for Flo, she landed on a huge snow pile and was not hurt. Her brothers were not so fortunate. Mama Pig heard the commotion, ran into the living room and, when she realized what they had done, sent the boys to live with their Uncle Oscar Mayer.Uncle Oscar always knew what to do with bad little pigs. The boys protested. They were just doing Flo a favor by helping her find her boots; it wasn’t their fault that she was clumsy.But Mama would not listen to their excuses and off they went to Uncle Oscar’s. Flo and Mama Pig still live on the 75th floor of the apartment building in New York City, and their very happy there. Now Flo gets her brothers’ allowance since their not there.

The person to my left.

Right now, I am sitting at one of the many computers that our school provides, and to the left of me sits a girl named Erin. As I glance over at her quickly I notice a few things. First, her hair is a lot more blond than it was when we were buddys in pre-school, she's taller than I by a few inches and her hair falls lightly beyond her shoulders. After being friends for so long, I notice her usual habits that she probably does not even notice anymore. As she looks at her computer screen she shifts her weight to lean on her right elbow and brings her hand to her mouth and plays nervously with her bottom lip. She has always done this, and the memory of her mother telling her over and over not to do it is still fresh in my mind. She was always a nervous kid, so I guess it is what she does to calm her nerves. I also notice that her posture is not great as she sits at her computer slumped down and starring intensely forward. Another trait she seemed to always get punished for in typing class. That is the girl to my left. One of my best friends and someone who it would seem has been sitting to my left all my life.

Time Casule

If my community was planning to make a Time Capsule and I had to put five things of my choice into it, I know exactly what I would put in. The first thing I would put in would be a picture of New Brunswick that my grandfather took when he was a kid. I would put this in because I would like them to know how New Brunswick is supposed to look, and that they should try to restore it. The second thing I would put in would be my laptop, so they would see how our computers worked and how we accessed the Internet. The third thing I would put in would be a mixed CD that I made containing all my favorite music, so they could see what good music was in our time. The fourth thing I would put in would be a newspaper so they could understand the events that were happening in our time. The fifth thing I would put in would be some pictures of people working. I would put this in because, my guess is that if they have more technology than we have right now than they won't have to work for much.



***************************************************************************************



Hello people from the future,



My name is Taylar. I live on the Rapid road, and you probably have no idea where that is. My family consists of me, my brother and sister and my parents. Well, I can only imagine the reaction you had to the things I left behind. They probably are not much compared to what you have now. In a way if your world is indeed how I assume, I feel bad for you future people. In my day, we walked places and drove in cars and worked for our money. You probably fly around with rocket shoes and are able to clone your friends, teleport to places and make a living by sitting around all day talking to a computer. I feel increasingly bad for you if you have never heard of McDonald's or never tasted a Big Mac. I have a bit of advice for you all. First, once in a while, take off your rocket shoes and go for a walk. It will do you good because you are all probably overweight due to lack of exercise. Second, be careful because if Global warming is still on the rise, there may be some earthquakes and hurricanes. If Global warming is proved to be a myth. Don't worry about it. Finally, you poor dear future people, if food no longer exists and you are forced to eat paste out of a tube. Go to the nearest time machine(which I'm sure you have due to enhanced technology) come back and make a stop at McDonald's. You won't be sorry.

So, that is about all I have to tell you about Future People. Good luck with your lives and happy travels.

The Fantastic Five.

My music is something that is in my life everyday. I wake up to my favorite song as my alarm in the morning. When I get home from school, the first thing I do is plug my Ipod into speakers and listen to songs that make me feel comfortable and at home. The last thing I do before I go to bed is listen to a song that makes me feel relaxed. These are my top five favorite bands, I chose these bands because these are the bands that I have loved for years, each of these bands have provided me with songs that have got me through the good times and the bad. These bands are in no particular order.

#5: Demon Hunter

One of my favorite bands is Demon Hunter, they are one of my favorite bands because they seem to be the band that speaks to me the most when I'm in a bad mood. Demon Hunter is what I like to call a mix of everything. Each of their songs are different, the songs "My heartstrings come undone" and " Storm the gates of hell" could not be more different. At first if you listened to one song after the other you would assume that the songs were by different bands. I like Demon Hunter because none of their songs are the same,and the just keep surprising me with every new and different song they make.

#4: City and Colour

The band City and Colour is one of my favorite bands because of Dallas Green. Dallas Green has one of the best voices I have ever heard. His style of music is so different than anything else I've heard and his voice is very distinct. He has said that he writes songs when he is sad or something has happened in his life, and this shows through his lyrics. Dallas Green is one of the best musicians in my book because he takes risks with his music. To me, City and Colour comes out with songs that are made to instantly leave their mark on your mind, and I often compare their songs to Lays chips. Once you have one, you cant help but want another.

#3: Thousand Foot Krutch.

I have been listening to Thousand Foot Krutch for years now. Thousand Foot Krutch is the band I listen to when I'm in a good mood and want something to bob my head along with, they are also the band I listen to when I'm sad, when I'm mad, on a good day or a bad day. I guess I could say Thousand Foot Krutch has a song for every mood I'm in. Sometimes I think of Thousand Foot Krutch as the Mona Lisa, like they always have something they are happy about that I'm not sure of, which, is infectious and makes me happy. Therefore, every day that starts with a Thousand Foot Krutch song is a good one.

#2: Breaking Benjamin.

How I got interested in Breaking Benjamin in the first place, is a question I can not answer. The truth is, I can't remember how I stumbled upon them or when it was, but I do remember the first song I heard by Breaking Benjamin. That song is called "Breath" and I remember instantly having the lyrics stuck in my head: " You take the breath right you of me, you left a hole where my heart should be, you got to fight just to make it through 'cause I will be the death of you." After that day, I have always thought of Breaking Benjamin as one of the best bands in the world for the fact that they are impossible to ignore. Breaking Benjamin is a band that I would, without hesitation, give my right leg to see live.

#1: Flyleaf.

Flyleaf is unlike any band in the world. Sameer, Flyleaf's guitarist is one of the best I have heard in a while, let us not leave out Angus Young, who is the best guitarist of all time. But that is another band, another story. Above all else, I love Flyleaf for their lyrics. One of the songs that sticks out in my mind for it's memorable lyrics, is a song called " In The Dark": "There's only artificial light here. My flaws hide well here, I used to be afraid of cluttered noises. Now I'm afraid of silence. Fill this space, Idle words." I became interested in Flyleaf two years ago, and since then I have become, a mega fan. I have stated earlier that I would be willing to sacrifice my right leg to see Breaking Benjamin live. In this particular case, I believe I would sacrifice both my legs and my cat to see Flyleaf live. Flyleaf is very special to me because I feel like each of their songs has something I can relate to in them, and it is not often that you find a band that can hold your interest with every song they make. For me, that is Flyleaf.

This has been my top five favorite bands. If you have not had the pleasure of listening to one or all of them before, I suggest you give them a listen.
